Don't make excuses.
Just get out there, and whatever you're doing, do it to the best of your ability.
I've been watching TED talks and these words from John Wooden were what I needed last night. If you can recommend any other TED talks do send them though, there's so many on the site I don't know where to start.

ReplyDeletethose words were what i needed too!
ReplyDeletethanks liss!:)
This first image is so incredibly beautiful. I always feel inspired by (and slightly jealous of) the work of great illustrators
ReplyDeleteI have been listening to TED talks lately too!!
ReplyDeleteI have been listening to the free podcasts. There are tons so I have just been going down the list and listening to them all... and if one is uninteresting/irrelevant to me then I just skip on to the next one :). This one is a video and this guy was pretty funny -

I know what you mean, the TED site is a treasure trove! I really enjoyed listening to the one by Elizabeth Gilbert this week. x

hello, i'm a big fan of your lovely blog! i heart music and poetry so i thought i'd share this wonderful piece featuring natalie merchant (http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/natalie_merchant_sings_old_poems_to_life.html). her new album is amazing and the book/packaging beautifully crafted. enjoy! - peace, s.
ReplyDeleteOh I love the first illustration!!
ReplyDeleteThat first illustration is incredible.
ReplyDeleteTED is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI recommend Elizabeth Gilbert and Eve Ensler.
As a teacher-to-be, I was really struck by Ken Robinson, such great insights.
ReplyDeleteRives is a great speaker, I am deeply immersed into his presentation (eventhough his was not inspirational, just an LOL topic).

BTW, congrats on your nomination for Cosmo award.
Lovely images..

I love, love, looove TED! I would highly recommend J. K. Rowling's talk, as well as Steve Jobs. Elizabeth Gilbert's is also a very interesting and inspiring look at creativity. Thankyou for another great link!
ReplyDeletelovely artist. I'v started to listen to TED too

Good gracious that first illustration is cool <3
ReplyDeleteThat fashion illustration is so beautiful! Must check out the site.
ReplyDeleteOnce of the most inspiring talks I've ever seen was by a gentleman called Randy Pausch. Words won't even come close to doing it justice so I recommend just watching it:

That first illustration is just wonderful!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love that quote! Actually, that's what I'm doing with the 21 5 800 Project. I'm not making excuses and writing 800 words each day + I'm finally learning yoga!
So I wrote you a really long comment about how much I love TED, but then blogger killed it, UGH, so heres the gist:
ReplyDeleteI found it recently and have like fallen in love. It is completely inspiring and helps you to have a completely different way of thinking.
Here is easily the best lecture on there: http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity.html
It is so true. The American Public Education System murders creativity.
those images are beautiful, i am in love with the first one.

I watched this, and it's very insiring. I always feel that i don't do the best i could. And I'm always late. :(
ReplyDeleteMany mentioned the Elizabeth Gilbert speech, I liked that, too. And this one, too:
http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/eva_zeisel_on_the_playful_search_for_beauty.html
From the very sweet Eva Zeisel, who delivered this speech at the age of 94 I guess.
Also, have you ever heard about the book The Artist's Way?
:)

ReplyDeleteBen Zander is brilliant. Can't bring up the link on Ted.com, but just search his name on You Tube and you'll find him.
ReplyDeleteI haven't listened to too many of the talks, but looks like there's some good suggestions here, so thanks for initiating that! :)
